MUTTONS! I LOVE MUTTONS!

I think Justin Ang and Vernon A can go on to be 987’s Glenn and Rod. And I’m glad that I haven’t switched stations from my O level days till now. Some people think 987FM is too mainstream and childish, thus Class 95 became their preferred station. But I don’t think so!

Let’s just say different tastebuds tastes the same things differently.

I used to listen to them everytime I’m on my way to school and I have to embarrassingly admit that they do make me smile to myself at times. If I was alone, I would’ve laughed my head off! But I was among many NP and SP students. It’d be so paiseh lah if anyone of them recognizes me.

But now, due to some makeshifts in 987FM, they’ve moved to the 10pm-2am time slot. I guess it’s to cater better to students, which I can totally understand why. The Muttons liven up your nights without fail! Unlike a certain Shan Wee whom I personally think isn’t quite cut out for radio. He bores me, honestly.

For some reason, they like to pick on their listeners and callers. And for some reason, I love to hear that. It makes me feel how immature some people at my age are right now. Plus their jokes are lame… and funny.

They’re my favourite DJs. What’s YOURS?

    Muttons hosted the SI:2 finals off-tv (I was at the stadium). They were good and funny. Anywayy, I do not listen to P10 nor Class 95. About Shan Wee, Utt looks better than him. That’s random, sorry. My fave djs are from Yes 933’s morning show.

  2. Utt looks better than Shan? Totally. But girls go gaga over Shan ’cause he’s tall. But strangely they don’t go gaga over a pole. Maybe a pole is not handsome enough.

    ohh! jiǔ sān sān ah? I heard it’s the Chinese version of 987 or so ’cause it’s more fore young ppl. True?

    My favourite DJ was this guy named J.A. from Power 98…

    Until he became a traitor and went over to Perfect 10, introducing himself as Justin Ang.

    Argh.

    Shan Wee is so dull that I find myself more entertained listening to my aircon wheeze.

  4. HAR? Whoa.. I didn’t know Justin was from Power 98! But whatever it is, I’m glad he made the switch!

    hahaha! he’s in a show with DJ Ros now. I think it’s better but that’s ’cause there’s Ros. Shan dies when he’s alone. Esp in the previous midnight shows.

    LOL, i called in to power 98 once during Shan Wee’s slot. & somehow we started talking about my previous cat.

    shan: so what’s your cat’s name?
    me: boy.
    shan: oh, boy for a boy cat?
    me: ya, duh..

    first things first, if i am boring, then he was supposed to make the conversation interesting. secondly, why the hell were we talking about my cat when we can talk about other things? the topics he brought up was so boring…

    my favourite djs? glenn ong, rod monteiro & the flying dutchman COMBINED. they used to host the morning express together (: my god. i can even die from laughter on the spot!

  6. HAHAHHAHAH! i like the “ya, duh..” part. apparently a lot of callers say so to him AND the “Ohh.. okayyy” comment to show that the caller is disinterested in what Shan’s saying. You so lucky to get through! Btw you call for what? Bored is it…

    Aahhh the Morning Express. It’s a legend. A pity I didn’t follow it back then man.. if only they have podcasts *podcasts!* for those shows.

  7. i LOVE the two nutcases! everytime i listened to them on my way to school, i had to fight myself not to laugh, so i think i looked retarded pursing my lips and squinting my eyes just to stop the laughter. what the bleah!!

    eh is tt quiz/gameshow still on, on tt 10am to 2am slot?

  8. OMG, come to think of it.. I forgot if WHAT THE BLEAH! is still on or not. But there’s still, TICKLE MY MUTTON! and Ping & Pong.

    But I love their new segment – YOU COMPLAIN! It’s pretty smart of them to ride on S’poreans’ favourite pastime. And some complains, I tell you, so rabak ah you laugh until stomach pain ah!

  9. okay mistake. not power 98. its perfect ten; malunyer ):

  10. excited sangat kot… hehehe

  12. I think now you can tune in to Power 98 and Class 95 first ’cause Muttons moved to the 10pm slot lah!

    Ehhh so far only Carrie Chong left 987fm right?

  13. 13 ANDY

    So what if Shan Wee is tall, I AM TALL too. LOLL! Yeah you’re right about 933. Who got Denise Keller in Eye for a Guy? Not Shan Wee right?

  14. HAHAHAH! I forgot you are like towering waaaaay above me! Don’t feel bad lah. I’m sure there are girls who have a certain something for you also. Hehehe

    Errr I’m not sure about Eye for a Guy. I think it’s Mark Zee or Howard Lim or something…

    yeaps yeaps, same here, these buggers (err, i mean, muttons) really is one of a kind! That particular time when they clock how long the fhm babes took off their bras is like, they can do that? LoL…

    But i miss Carrie… my sweetheart… make my nights ‘go wild’… haha…

  16. Technically, they can. But what they did wrong is to put their vids on public.That was the big hoo-haa! Go Youtube it, in fact I have it in my ‘Favourites’ folder…

    WHAT? You got Carrie to make your nights ‘go wild’, I can’t have my own meh? :)

  17. i’d say the don and drew era of 987fm rocks the best. with song mashups and podcasts. *podcast!*
    oh and glenn ong’s egotrip with his different personas like shortfart the rest.

  18. oh ya! i rmb the short fart days! just that I guess i was too young back then. I didn’t listen to radio that much.. damn!

  19. 19 michelle
